Lauryn Williams: 'I wasn't trying to make history'

Lauryn Williams has insisted that she did not enter the Winter Olympics in a bid to "make history".

The 2012 4x100m gold medallist narrowly missed out on the chance to become the first woman to be crowned Olympic champion at a Summer and Winter Games, finishing second in the bobsleigh alongside pilot Elana Meyers for the United States.

The 30-year-old told Reuters: "I didn't come here to make history, I came here to help Team USA. It wasn't about history for me."

Williams also has a silver medal from the 2004 Games in Athens, where she finished second in the 100m.
